Taylor: Displaying enemies’ skulls not wrong
Taylor, 61, insisted he was trying to bring peace and the rule of law to Liberia, as he testified in his own defence on the third full day of his trial.
He is charged with 11 counts of war crimes and crimes against humanity for allegedly supporting rebels in neighbouring Sierra Leone who unleashed a campaign of terror in their country’s 1991-2002 civil war. Some 500,000 people were killed, mutilated or victims of other atrocities.
